Class agents help shape the learning experience for students by raising critical funds for everything from scholarships and financial aid to innovative research programs and world-class faculty.

Harvard Medical School attracts and produces some of the best and brightest minds in the world. This is made possible, in large part, by the steadfast commitment and support of our Class Agent volunteers.

Each class agent is responsible for providing leadership for the fundraising efforts of his or her class each year. As a class agent, alumni play a vital role in keeping their classmates connected with the School and encouraging their annual support of HMS students through their personal dedication, enthusiasm, and gift contributions.

More than $1.94 million was contributed by alumni, through the Alumni Fund and the Amphitheater Chairs program, to support immediate-use student scholarships

14 classes had a donor participation rate of 50% or higher
